Your guide to the patterns of personality As a senior manager at NASA, Dr. Ginny Whitelaw had access to excellent leadership training. But like most leadership training, it taught leaders from the neck up, not deeply enough to develop the whole and balanced leaders so needed in today's complex organizations. She knew there had to be a deeper, more integrated way of developing effective leaders. There is! Move to Greatness reveals that to lead and live wholly, basic energy patterns must be brought into balance. Out of kilter, these four patterns create the ineffective "buts" in leadership style ("great at making numbers, but hell on staff") and personal performance ("successful at work, but has no life"). Success and failure originate in our use (or misuse) of four fundamental patterns in the nervous system that have been studied over decades: * The Driver pushes into every barrier with speed, directness and intensity and puts a focus on priorities, actions and the bottom line. * The Organizer does the right thing with discipline and order and establishes processes, clarifies roles and assigns responsibility. * The Collaborator swings into playful engagement with life and the people in it, and as a leader, the Collaborator is oriented to customers, employees, loyalty and fun. * The Visionary goes with the flow, hangs out in the chaos, and leaps to new possibilities; the Visionary leader thinks outside the box and creates the future. Using these patterns as a map, you will understand people more easily and more deeply, and see how to lead them more effectively. Moreover, you'll learn how to move yourself to your highest potential. Discover your natural preferences and learn how to literally move yourself-and others-to greatness.

Are you a Driver, a Collaborator, an Organizer or a Visionary? Read Ginny Whitelaw's Move to Greatness: Focusing the Four Essential Energies of a Whole and Balanced Leader to find out.Unbalanced energy patterns create the ineffective buts in leadership style and personal performance. Leaders need to know how to use their strengths and overcome their own barriers. Both success and failure originate in the use or misuse of four fundamental patterns that have been studied over decades: the Driver, the Collaborator, the Organizer and the Visionary. When they are in balance, these patterns create wholly effective leaders who can achieve peak performance.In Move to Greatness, author Ginny Whitelaw explains these four essential energy patterns, revealing the strengths and weaknesses of each. Using these patterns as a map, leaders will discover their natural preferences and learn how to understand people and to lead them more effectively - realizing how to literally move themselves and others to newfound greatness.Finally, a tool and approach that makes intuitive, practical and theoretical sense. - David Dotlich, Founding Partner at Delta Executive Learning Center; author of Why CEOs Fail, Unnatural Leadership, and Head, Heart and GutsContentsAcknowledgmentsIntroduction: Your Guide to the Patterns1 Enter the Patterns2 Discover Your Winning Way3 Push into the Driver4 Step into the Organizer5 Swing into the Collaborator6 Drift into the Visionary7 Pick a Barrier, Break Through8 Lead in Ways Others Can Follow9 Move Teams and Organizations to Greatness10 Engage as a Whole and Balanced LeaderAppendix I FEBI Validation and Connection to Other ModelsAppendix II Additional ResourcesEndnotesAbout the AuthorsIndex.
